Jerry,

Two, that I know of. Jeff Velde's A/SA got sold to Ken Miele, but it has had some engine problems as of late, and has never, to my knowledge, run as quick as Jeff had it running (down into the nines several times, at races that were not "mineshaft" air.) The other is Bill Hawk's B/SA car which pretty much runs away from the best of the best of the 396 Camaros. Austin Ford runs one in D/SA but never lets us know what its real potential is.

There may well be more; but, those two are the high profile cars that have stood out in the FastNews stats that are compiled for each race.
